Evidence-based medicine (EBM) represents a cornerstone in medical research, guiding policy and decision-making. However, the robust steps involved in EBM, particularly in the abstract screening stage, present significant challenges to researchers. Nu...

Systematic reviews (SRs) constitute a critical foundation for evidence-based decision-making and policy formulation across various disciplines, particularly in healthcare and beyond. However, the inherently rigorous and structured nature of the SR pr...

Systematic Reviews (SRs) are foundational in healthcare for synthesising evidence to inform clinical practices. Traditionally skewed towards English-language databases, SRs often exclude significant research in other languages, leading to potential b...

Systematic Review (SR) presents the highest form of evidence in research for decision and policy-making. Nonetheless, the structured steps involved in carrying out SRs make it demanding for reviewers. Many studies have projected the abstract screenin...
